Just trying ''one up'' and well, if I don't get answer, I'll just try to google my way into some answers.

Hello everyone,

I just tried to look for information from myself but it looked pretty difficult to be honest. I would absolutely love to find a really good Telegram group with loads of trade advices etc. The kind of groups that could have helped me to anticipate Bitcoin Cash x4 for example.
The kind of group that can serve as a base to decide a trade or not with my own analysis.
I am even ready to pay for a group like that.

BUT : There is SO much competition in the field that it's kind of difficult to know who to look into.
So my question is : what are the best telegram groups to subscribe into ? What are the ones that are the most trusted / followed ?
No interested to see advertising though.

Also, shall I look into other options (Slack for example) ? Is there a Slack Group in Particular considered to be a ''goldmine"'?


All answers will be greatly appreciated. Cheers !

* Actif sur pas mal de forums au sujet du Bitcoin, je suis tombé un peu par hasard sur Trading View il y a quelques jours. J'ai été particulièrement intéressé par cette partie du site :
https://www.tradingview.com/markets/cryptocurrencies/quotes-all/
EDIT: A noter que le site est dispo en FR : https://fr.tradingview.com/

Les parties ''Oscillators'' / ''Trend Following'' semblent particulièrement intéressantes dans le cadre de news / day trading. J'aime l'idée d'aller très souvent sur ce site pour avoir une base d'idée, de me renseigner moi-même de mon coté à partir de cette base et, de là, faire mes ventes achats. (A noter que je suis bilingue anglais/francais donc ca aide).

Est-ce que certains ici utilisent ce site ? Les conseils vente/achat peuvent-ils être intéressants selon vous ? A noter que google aide bien si l'on veut plus d'info sur les différents chiffres et leur signification (par exemple ''MACD Level Trading view'' pour le wiki expliquant ce que représente le MACD'').
J'ai un peu du mal à identifier la différence entre Oscilators / Trend Following. La première est plus mathématique non ? Quel ligne de conseil vous donnerait le plus de confiance ?


* Autre petite question. J'ai déjà des comptes vérifiés et actifs sur Kraken/Bitrexx. J'ai aussi ma Nano Ledger S à disposition. J'ai déjà fais quelques trades pour m'habituer / comprendre les plateformes. Par contre... j'ai du mal à comprendre comment les daytraders/newstraders font pour respecter la maxime suprême qui dit ''ne jamais garder son argent sur les sites d'échange''. Vu les frais, j'imagine qu'il ne s'amusent pas a passer constamment leurs cryptos des sites d'échange vers leurs Nano.
La seule solution ''secure'' d'un day trader/news trader crypto est de jouer sur 5/6 plateformes d'échange en même temps ? (Et donc, risquer de perdre 20/25% grand maximum de sa bankroll en cas de MontGox bis ?)

Merci !

Very interesting. Didn't know about BIPs. Then I understand the importance of a consensus. And that a non-consensus situation over any BIPs can basically lead to a fork.

BUT. Who are responsible for these consensus ? That's something I also fail to understand.

And, another question though. Am I wrong thinking that the biggest challenge of Bitcoin devs now is to make Bitcoin less energy-consuming ?
Am I wrong thinking that Bitcoin as it is now would be FAR from capable of handling the decentralized exchanges of even ''only'' a single Occidental 20 million people country , if, tomorrow, such a country would decide to uniquely use Bitcoin.

Thank you.
And thank you to most comments, which are really helpful and interesting. I think you exactly point out something that I seemed to not understand yet.

- When you speak about the BTC Active Development team, we are speaking about https://bitcoinfoundation.org right ? Who is behind the Core Team?
And basically, the forks are happening when a big part of the community is not agreeing with part one or another development made by them ?
And thus, my assumption that Bitcoin technology is not evolving is completely wrong?
And, for example, I guess that the energy-consumption problem is something that they actively always try to find solutions about / make evolve in the good direction.

I am trying to understand things better - not very much interested in non-constructive posts by what seems to be a very angered and uninteresting forum-member. Thank god, most other comments in here are so far interesting and productive. With your exception obv.

I think this is where I do miss something here. Isn't the principle of Bitcoin (and most Cryptos) to never change the technology they start with ?
As Bitcoin technology is right now, it is IMPOSSIBLE that it accomplishes it's aim to be the decentralized money for the whole world it aims/dreams for. Because energetically speaking, the technology requires way way too much electricity/energy.

When Bitcoin technology want to be improved, it has to be done through a fork. (meaning Bitcoin always stays the same but any fork of Bitcoin can be improved when it comes to energy-consumption for example).
Am I wrong here ? BTC is actually constantly improving itself and it's technology ? I really fail to see how Bitcoin keeps evolving/improving as a technology. And thus, I really fail to see how a non-evolving technology could keep improving it's price.

@ xskl0 : Bitcoin will last hundred of years - Well, I actually believe you IF we talk about a crypto-currency that keeps evolving in technical terms. But if BTC as we know and HODL is not evolving any more, I am afraid you are wrong. It's obvious that similar crypto-currencies to BTC will improve what is, imho, the biggest problem of our beloved crypto : it's energy consumption.


Maybe my quite low technical understanding is having me writing wrong assumptions but I would really like to be proved wrong?

Hello guys,

Pretty nooby question here.
https://ledger.groovehq.com/knowledge_base/topics/which-altcoins-are-supported-by-the-nano-s-and-the-blue => Here is the list of altcoins/tokens that I can store in my Ledger Nano S. Which, I believe, is strongly accepted by the community as the safest way to store your crypto currencies safely.

But what if you want to hodl an altcoin that is not storable in your Nano Ledger S? (Let's imagine NEO and OMG for example)
I obviously understand that it's never a good idea to store any of my alt-coins in a marketplace like Bitrex for example.

Thanks in advance for making things a bit clearer to me. Hope my question make any sense.

Hello guys,

My understanding of crypto-currencies/Bitcoin is, I would say, intermediate. I need people to make me understand why my assumption that Bitcoin WILL disappear in mid-term and be replaced by another cryptocurrency/technology could be wrong.

Why am I making this assumption ?
If I am not mistaking, one of the main principle of the Bitcoin (and most crypto-currencies) is that you can't change how the technology / the blockchain / the crypto currency is made. Meaning that the Bitcoin that went out in 2009 is supposed to always be the same. (unless you make a Fork butt well, it seems like all forks will always be much smaller in Market Value than the original Bitcoin).

If technology stays the same forever, isn't it OBLIGATORY that another technology (and I mean by that, probably another cryptocurrency) will take the place of Bitcoin in the short/middle term ? Not sure if you know it, but if Bitcoin was a country, it would already be 71th in the world in electricity consumption ! Isn't the Bitcoin aim to be the world-decentralized money simply impossible due to the limitations of the technology?
It seems to me quite obvious that another crypto-money WAY less demanding in energy/electricity and also waayyyy faster with calculations should replace the Bitcoin in the future IF the Bitcoin technology isn't evolving.

English is my third language but I hope I am making sense.

I am actually fine to wait for the time a verification will need to take etc.
But I am not sure I understand. I could transfer directly the 1000 euros but then can only change 95EUR per transfer and each time have to pay a 6% fee ? That seems to me like really insane amounts... Or is this ''normal'' ?

If I transfer all my money to my bank and put it back to Kraken for example, what are the fees I should be expecting to pay ?

Thank you guys

Ok I understand, sorry if I seemed rude in anyway. I am a bit disappointed that no ''easy way'' is available with leading platforms like Coinbase/Kraken/etc. Thank you

Merci. Je vais demander au support de kraken et au support de Coinbase si des paiements depuis Neteller sont possibles.

Si les frais entrants/sortants de Kraken sont moins élevés je vais me diriger vers eux. J'ai entendu beaucoup de bien à leur sujet niveau qualité et surtout, sécurité. A quels genre de frais de Kraken vers Bittrex je dois m'attendre ? Combien de temps pour la validation d'un compte ?

Merci

Ergh. You are basically saying that I will have not much choice but Neteller ==> My Bank ==> Coinbase through my VISA card or something ... ?
Your way seem too complicated/expensive to me..

Bonjour les amis,

Très intéressé depuis plusieurs semaines sur le sujet des Cryptos / Altcoins / etc. j'aimerai réaliser mes premiers pas / investissements dans les jours à venir. Certaines choses ne sont pas encore très claires néanmoins.

- L'argent que je veux investir est sur Neteller. Est-il possible de transferer des euros de Neteller vers Coinbase pour pouvoir acheter des BTC/ETH et LTC ? A quel frais je dois m'attendre pour 1000 euros (par exemple). Si Coinbase n'est pas possible, il y a il une autre plateforme recommandable ?

- Une fois sur Coinbase (ou autre) ; a quel frais je dois m'attendre (pour l'équivalent de 1000 euros de BTC par exemple) lors du transfert de Coinbase vers Bittrex ?

- Que ce soit directement depuis Coinbase (pour ce que je transfère pas vers Bittrex) ou directement depuis Bittrex, il y a il des frais pour le transfert de la totalité de mes investissements vers ma Ledger Nano S ? Admettons que j'aie l'équivalent de 100 euros d'une petite altcoins (Basic Attention Token (BAT)) par exemple... est-ce que je peux directement transférer vers ma wallet physique et HOLD ? Ce n'est pas impossible de hold des altcoins via la Ledger Nano? (J'ai trouvé de moi-même la réponse à priori https://ledger.groovehq.com/knowledge_base/topics/which-altcoins-are-supported-by-the-nano-s-and-the-blue )

Merci d'avance pour votre aide / conseils et remarques si jamais certaines choses écrites n'ont ''pas de sens''.

Hello guys,

Pretty basic question though. I have available in Neteller a good 4 figure number in Euros and I would like to buy BTCs or ETHs to then be able to make a few investments in Bittrex and finally get everything back to my Ledger Nano and HOLD for quite some time.

Question is... I never did things directly from Neteller. Does Coinbase accept payments coming from Neteller in a safe way with not too much fees ? What other website would you recommend if Coinbase doesn't look fine to you ?

Sorry if the question is very newbie. Very interested in the Coins world for quite some time but still very new when it comes to fees / wallets / etc.

Thanks

Merci les amis, très bons conseils

Hello les amis,

J'ai fait une petite recherche tout à l'heure sur l'Appstore (Android donc) et j'ai rien trouvé. Il y a il une bonne app (en anglais c bon aussi) qui permette de suivre l'actualité des cryptos ? Pas quelque chose de focus sur l'une ou l'autre coin en particulier, plus quelque chose de géneraliste qui permettrait de comprendre un peu mieux les mouvements du marché etc.

Merci
